This invention relates to reactive dyestuffs and more particularly it relates to water-solublev azo dyestuffs containing fiber-reactive groups which are particularly valuable for coloring polyamide and cellulose textile materials. v

It has been found that water-soluble compounds containing a sufficient number of'sulphonicacid groups to provide water-solubility, one or more cellulose-reactive groups and at least one 3-azo-2-hydroxy-N-substitutedpyrid-6-one radical are valuable dyestuffs capable of affording deep shades of. excellent fastness on cellulose, wool or polyamidetextile materials. That is to say,v.the invention provides the novel concept of utilizing N-substituted 2-hydroxy-pyrid-6-one coupling components to form cellulose-reactive. dyestuffs, the fiber-reactive group either being present in the components coupled together to form the dyestuff or being introduced into an azo dyestuff already containing the -N-substituted 2-hydroxy-pyrid-6-one radical.

I. General Description of the new dyestuffs The new dyestuffs may be characterized by the presence of at least one sulphonic acid group, at least one cellulose-reactive group and at least one group of the formula:

The azo dyestuffs of the invention can exist in a number of tautomeric forms; for convenience the dyestuffs have only been formulated in one of these tautomeric forms, but it is to be understood that this Specification relates to dyestuffs in any of the possible tautomeric forms.

The radical represented by A is a naphthalene nucleus or a benzene nucleus preferably carrying at least one sulphonic acid or carboxylic acid and optionally other substitutents such as chlorine, bromine, lower alkyl such as methyl, lower alkoxy such as methoxy, cyano, nitro, acetylamino or a fiber-reactive group X.

Yet a further class of dyestuffs of the invention are represented by formula (2) wherein A stands for a radical of the azo benzene, azonaphthalene or phenylazonaphthalene series.

The invention also relates to disazo dyestuffs which may be regarded as 2 molecules of the dyestuffs of formula '(2) joined together through the radical A by a direct link or a bridging atom or group such as O-, S, Nl-I, CH=CH, OCH CH O-, -CONH- or NHCONH.

When the radical A contains a metallizable group, for example a hydroxy or carboxylic acid group, in ortho position to the azo group, then such dyestuffs can form metal complexes, and such metal complexes form further classes of dyestuffs of the invention.

The fiber-reactive group represented by X is a group whosepresence in the dyestuff molecule renders the dyestuff capable of chemically combining with hydroxy groups present in cellulose textile materials or with amino groups present in polyamide textile materals. The fiber-reactive groups represented by X are attached to carbon atoms present in the dyestuff molecule and preferably to carbon atoms of aromatic rings, especially benzene rings, present in the dyestuff molecule.

II. Manufacture of the new dyestuffs The new dyestuffs can be obtained by the conventional coupling and where necessary condensation and- /or metallization reactions used for manufacture of cellulose-reactive dyestuffs characterized by use in the coupling stage of a N-substituted Z-hydroxy-pyrid- 6-one compound.

Thus the metal-free azo dyestuffs of the invention may be obtained by diazotizing an amine of the formula A-NH or tetrazatizing a diamine of the formula NH ANH and coupling the resulting diazo compound with a coupling component which in one of the possible tautomeric forms is represented by the formula:

wherein A, T, T and Z have the meanings stated above, the amine containing at least one fiber reactive group and at least one sulphonic acid group.

The diazotization and coupling stages of this process can be carried out in conventional manner, but are preferably carried out in an acid or at most weakly alkaline aqueous medium so as to reduce the possibility of hydrolysis of the fiber-reactive groups present.

Amines of the formula A-Nl-L which contain a fiberreactive group can be obtained by condensing a compound of the formula X-halogen with the appropriate diamine, for example with l:4-phenylenediamine-2z5- disulphonic acid, under such conditions that only one of the two amino groups reacts with the compound of the formula X-halogen.

Other suitable diamines for this purpose are: l,3- phenylenediamine-4-sulphonic acid and 2,6-disulphonic acid, l,4-phenylenediamine-Z-sulphonic acid and 2,6-diaminonaphthalene-4,8-disulphonic acid.

The coupling components of Formula 8 can be obtained by a number of methods such as are described for example, in Heterocyclic Compounds Pyridine and its derivatives Part 3 which was edited by Klingsberg and published by Interscience Publishers in 1962. Typical methods include, for example, (1) condensing together compounds of the formula TCOCH- COO alkyl and T CH COO alkyl in the presence of an excess of an amine of the formula Z-NH (2) cyclization of an azB-disubstituted glutaconamide of the formula alkyl .T l ooc. crr c c CONHZ,

which is itself obtained by condensing together in the presence of a basic catalyst compounds of the formulae TCOCH COO alkyl and T CH CONHZ, or (3) cyclization of an azB-disubstftuted glutaconamide of the formula:

T2 l ZNHCOCH2C c.coo

An alternative process for the manufacture of the azo dyestuffs of the invention which contain the fiber reactive group attached through an amino group comprises reacting an azo dyestuff of the formula:

'x-ir-u r wherein A, M, T, T and Z have the meanings stated above and in which A contains an amino group and at least one sulphonic acid group, with a compound of the formula: X-halogen, wherein halogen is chlorine or bromine and X has the meaning stated, one molecular proportion of the halogen compound being used for each amino or alkylamino group present in the dyestuff.

This alternative process of the invention can be conveniently carried out by stirring the azo dyestuff containing the amino group and the halogen compound together in water or in a mixture of water and a water-soluble organic liquid such as acetone, and gradually adding an acid binding agent such as sodium carbonate to neutralize the acid formed in the reaction. The resulting fiber-reactive dyestuff can then be isolated by con- 9 ventional methods.

The said azo dyestuffs of the invention containing an amino group can themselves be obtained by diazotizing an amine of the formula A-NH and coupling the resulting diazo compound with a coupling component of 5 Formula 8, the amine containing a second amino group which is less readily diazotized or a group such as a nitro or acetylamino group which is readily converted to an amino group after coupling is complete. When it is desired to prepare metal complexes of the azo dyestuffs of the invention then it is preferred to prepare the metal complex of the corresponding dyestuff containing an amino group by treating the dyestuff with a solution of a metal compound, and subsequently reacting the metallized dyestuff containing an amino group with a compound of the formula X-halogen.

The new fiber-reactive azo dyestuffs of the invention which contain as the reactive group a 1:3:5-triazine nucleus substituted by a chlorine atom and by an optionally substituted amino group can also be obtained by reacting the corresponding dyestuff containing a 1:325- triazine nucleus substituted by two chlorine atoms with ammonia or the appropriate primary or secondary amine under such conditions that one of the chlorine atoms attached to the 1:3:5-triazine nucleus is replaced by an optionally substituted amino group.

The new fiber-reactive azo dyestuffs of the invention which contain as the reactive group a 1:3:5-triazine or pyrimidine nuclei substituted by a quaternary ammonium group or one or more w so rr, SCN, SCN or s c I S 1 5 groups (as previously defined) can also be obtained by reacting the corresponding dyestuff containing one or more chlorine or bromine atoms attached to the 1:35- triazine or pyrimidine nuclei with a tertiary amine (such as trimethylamine and pyridine), an alkali metal sulphite, an alkali metal salt of a dithiocarbamate or an alkali metal salt of a 2-mercaptothiazole (such as 2- mercaptobenzthiazole).

The new reactive azo dyestuffs of the invention are particularly valuable for coloring cellulose textile materials, to which they are applied by dyeing, padding or printing processes in conjunction with a treatment with an alkaline agent. The dyestuffs have excellent build-up properties and the resulting colorations have excellent fastness to light and to the wet treatments which are commonly applied to cellulose'textile materials.

' SECTION A This section describes the manufacture of examples of monoazo dyestuffs of the invention by coupling the diazonium'salt of an amine containing a cellulose-reactive group with a 6-hydroxypyrid-2-one coupling component.

EXAMPLE 1 A solution of 7.4 parts of cyanuric chloride in 50 parts of acetone is added with stirring to parts of water at 0 to 4C. A solution of the sodium salt of 7 .52 parts of l:3-diaminobenzene-4-sulphonic acid in parts of water is then added, the temperature of the mixture being maintained at 0 to 4C by external cooling. After the reaction is complete the pH of the mixture is raised to between 6.5 and 7 by the addition of sodium carbonate and a solution of the sodium salt of 6.93 parts of metanilic acid in 100 parts of water is added. The mixture is then stirred for 4 hours at 30 to 40 while the pH of the mixture is maintained between 4.5 and 6 by the addition of sodium carbonate. The resulting solution is cooled to 0C, 20 parts of a 2N aqueous solution of sodium nitrite are added, followed by 12 parts of a concentrated aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid. The mixture is stirred for 30 minutes and the excess nitrous acid is then destroyed by addition of sulphamic acid. The resulting mixture containing the diazo compound is added with stirring to a slightly alkaline solution of 7.13 parts of 1-ethyl-3-cyano-4-methyl- 6-hydroxypyrid-2-one in 200 parts of water at 0 to 4C, and the pH is adjusted to between 7.5 and 8.0. After coupling is completed, acetic acid is added to lower the pH to 6.0, the temperature is raised to 20C, and the dyestuff precipitated by the addition of sodium chloride. The dyestuff is then filtered off and dried.

When applied to cotton and viscose rayon textile materials in conjunction with a treatment with an acidbinding agent the dyestuff yields'bright greenish-yellow shades having excellent fastness to wet treatments such as washing and to light.

EXAMPLE 2 TO EXAMPLE 153 The following Table depicts further examples of the invention obtained in similar manner to Example 1 by condensing the diamine used in column II with one mole of the acid chloride compound named in column I and diazotizing and coupling the resultant amino compound with the coupling component named in column Ill. The shade of dyestuff obtained is stated in the final column.

sulphophenoxy striazine The l-alkyl-3-aminocarbony1-4-methy1-6-hydroxypyrid-2-ones used in the above examples are believed to be novel. They may be obtained by hydrolysis of the corresponding 3-cyano compound by treatment with acid. A typical preparation of 1ethy1-3-aminocarbonyl-4-methyl-6-hydroxypyrid-2-one is as follows:

60 parts of powdered l-ethy1-3-cyano-4-methy16- hydroxypyrid-2-one are added to 330 parts of stirred 100% sulfuric acid during 1 hour, the temperature of the mixture not being permitted to rise above 20C.

during this time. The mixture is then stirred at 50-55C. for 24 hours and the resulting clear solution poured onto 600 parts of crushed ice. The white precipitate is collected by filtration and washed by slurring with 5 brine solution until the washings are no longer acid to Congo Red indicator paper. The product, after drying in vacuo over phosphorus pentoxide melts with decomposition at 164 and is found to contain 14.1 N (Cd-1 N 0 req N 14.3 Recrystallization from alcohol gives well formed prisms melting at 164 with decomposition, analysis now giving C 54.6 H

the cellulosereactive groups into a compound of formula (9) above.

EXAMPLE 102 A solution of 6.7 parts of 1,4-phenylenediamine 2,5- disulphonic acid in 100 parts of hydrochloric acid (36Tw) at 50C. is diazotized by the dropwise addition of 1.73 parts of sodium nitrate dissolved in 12.5 parts of water. 1

The diazonium solution so formed is then added to a stirred solution of 4.5 parts of l-ethyl-3-cyano-4-methyl-6-hydroxypyrid-2-one in 250 parts of water at pH 7.0 and 0-5C. The pH of the solution is maintained at 6-7 with 10 sodium carbonate solution as required and the mixture stirred at 05C. for hours.

To the solution is then added dropwise, a solution of 4.7 parts of cyanuric chloride in 30 parts of acetone and the mixture stirred at 05C. for 2 hours maintaining the pH at 6-7 with sodium carbonate solution as required. The dyestuff is precipitated by addition of sodium chloride and filtered off. The precipitate is intimately mixed with 1 part of anhydrous disodium hydrogen phosphate and 1.9 parts of anhydrous potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and dried at a temperature between 20C. and 30C.

When applied to cellulosic materials, the dyestuff obtained gives reddish yellow shades which are fast to washing and to light.

EXAMPLE 103 A mixture of 12.0 parts of 6-acetylamino-2- aminonaphthalene-4,8-disulphonic acid and 10 parts 36Tw hydrochloric acid in 150 parts of water at 05C is diazotized by the addition of 17 parts of 2N sodium nitrite solution. Slight excess of nitrous acid is removed by addition of 10% aqueous sulphamic acid solution as required and the diazo suspension is added to a solution of 7.0 parts 3-aminocarbonyl-1-ethyl-6- hydroxy-4-methylpyrid-2-one in 250 parts of water at SC. The pH of the mixture is adjusted to 7.0 by addition of 2N sodium carbonate solution and the mixture stirred at O5C and pH 7.0 for 3 hours. The monoazo compound is filtered off and dried at 40C under vacuum.

parts of the monoazo compound prepared above are stirred at the boil under a reflux condenser in 700 parts of water. To the mixture is added 160 parts of 36Tw hydrochloric acid and the mixture is then boiled for 45 minutes. The mixture is cooled to 10C., the precipitated aminoazo compound filtered off, washed with 150 parts of water and dried.

To a solution of 13.12 parts of the aminoazo compound prepared above in 300 parts of water at 35-40C and pH 7.0 is added 6.44 parts of 2,4- dichloro-6-B-sulphoethyl-amino-s-triazine in 50 parts of water and the mixture stirred at 35-40C for 5 hours maintaining the pH at 6-7 by addition of 2N sodium carbonate solutionas required.

The dyestuff is precipitatedby addition of potassium chloride and dried at 40C. Y

When applied to cotton and viscose rayon textile material in the presence of an acid binding agent it yields orange shades which have excellent fastness to wet treatments and to light.

If in place of the 2,4-dichloro-6-B-sulphoethylaminos-triazine used above there are used an equivalent amount of any of the following:

. Example 104. 2,4'-dichloro-6-( 3 ,8 -disulpho naphth-l ylamino)-s-triazine, 105. 2,4-dichloro-6-(4,8 '-disulpho naphth-l ylamino )-s-triazine,

EXAMPLES 113 TO 132 If an equivalent amount of 4-acetylaminoaniline-2,5- disulphonic acid is used in place of 6-acetylamino-2- aminonaphthalene4,8-disulphonic acid in each of Examples 104 to 112 there are obtained dyestuffs (Examples 113 to 122) which give reddish-yellow shades when applied to cellulose with good fastness to washing and to light.

Alternatively. an equivalent amount of 3- acetylaminoaniline-6-sulphonic acid may be used,

which, after coupling, hydrolysis, and condensation with any of the dibromoor dichlor-s-triazines used in Examples 104 to 112, provide dyestuffs (Examples 123 to 132) which give greenish-yellow shades on cellulose with good fastness to washing and to light.

SECTION C This section describes the manufacture of monoazo dyestuffs of the invention which contain as the reactive group or groups one or more 1:3:5-triazine nuclei substituted by a chlorine atom and by an optionally substituted amino group by reacting the corresponding dyestuff containing at least one 1:3:5-triazine nucleus substituted by two chlorine atoms with ammonia or the appropriate primary or secondary amine under such conditions that one of the chlorine atoms attached to each 1:3:5-triazine nucleus is replaced by an optionally substituted amino group.

In general this replacement can be effected by heating a mixture of ammonia or the amine and the dyestuff in aqueous solution at from about 30 to about 60C., maintaining the pH of the solution at from 6 to 8 by addition of an alkali to neutralize the liberated hydrogen chloride as it is formed. In the case of aliphatic or other amino compounds of similar basicity, an excess of the amine can be used, the excess acting as acid-binding agent.

This process is illustrated by the following Examples in which parts are by weight.

EXAMPLE 133 A solution of the sodium salt of 26.8 parts of 1,4- diaminobenzene-2,5-disulphonic acid in 500 parts of water is mixed with 50 parts of 2N sodium nitrite solution and cooled to to -3C. 30 Parts of concentrated hydrochloric acid are then added and the diazonium salt is stirred for 30 minutes at 0C. Any residual nitrous acid is destroyed by the addition of sulphamic acid. The diazonium chloride so obtained is added to a neutral solution of 17.8 parts of 1-ethyl-3-cyano-4- methyl-6-hydroxypyrid-2-one in 600,parts of water at 04C. with stirring and the pH adjusted slowly to 7 7.5 until the coupling has been accomplished. The solution so obtained is mixed with 18.5 parts of powdered cyanuric chloride at O8C. and the mixture stirred at pH -6 until the amino group of the azo-compound has completely reacted. The solution containing the dichloro-s-triazinyl dye is mixed with a solution of the sodium salt of 17.5 parts of sulphanilic acid in 200 parts of water and the mixture stirred at pH 5-6, at 3040C. until one chlorine atom of the dichloro-striazinyl dye has completely reacted. The dyestuff is precipitated by the addition of sodium chloride, filtered off and dried.

When applied to cotton and viscose rayon textile materials the dyestuff yields bright reddish-yellow shades having excellent fastness to wet treatments such as washing and to light.

EXAMPLE 1 34 In a manner similar toExample 1. 6.7 parts of 1,3- phenylenediamine-4,6-disulphonic acid dissolved in 50 parts of water at 0-5C and pH 5.0 is condensed with 4.63 parts of cyanuric chloride in a mixture of parts of acetone, parts of ice and 50 parts of water, and the product is diazotized and coupled with 4.9 parts of 3 -aminocarbonyl-1-ethyl 6-hydroxy-4-methylpy rid- 2-one dissolved in 150 parts of water at pH 7.0 and 5C. The mixture is stirred at O5C for 2 hours maintaining the pH at 6-7 with 2 N sodium carbonate solution as required. To the solution 2.5 parts of aniline are added, and the solution heated to 35-40C. for 3 hours maintaining the pH at 6 7 with 2N sodium carbonate solution as required. The dyestuff is isolated by total liquor spray drying, and when applied to cotton and viscose rayon textile materials in conjunction with a treatment with an acid-binding agent it yields bright greenish-yellow shade having excellent fastness to wet treatments such as washing and to light.

The following table describes further examples of monoazo dyestuffs obtained in a similar manner to Example 133 by mono-diazotization of the diamine named in column 11, coupling with the pyridone of column 111, condensing with cyanuric chloride and then with the amine of column IV, or in similar manner to Example 134 by first condensing the diamine with cyanuric chloride, diazotized and coupling with the pyridone and then condensing with 1 mole of the amine. In the examples 148 to 158, it is more convenient to use a substantial excess, eg 5 moles, of the amine and exclude the addition of sodium carbonate.

This is added to a neutral solution of 178 parts of l-ethyl-3-cyano-4-methyl-6-hydroxypyrid-Z-one in 500 parts of water and pH raised slowly to 7.5 by the addition of 2N sodium hydroxide. The yellow azo dyestuff is then reacted with parts of chromium acetate at pH 5.5 6.0 by heating at 95 100C for 1 hour. The red solution of 2:1-chromium complex is filtered and treated with 40 parts of sodium sulphide crystals added portionwise over 1 hour at 90C/pl-l 7 8. The mixture is filtered, cooled acidified with 50 parts of concentrated hydrochloric acid to Congo Red at the 2: l-chromium complex isolated by the addition of salt, filtration and washing with a little acetone.

The corresponding 1:2Co complex gives dull scarlet shades.

EXAMPLE 179 In place of 23.4 parts of 2-amino-6-nitrophenol-4- sulphonic acid used in Example 178 there are used 23.4 parts of 2-amino-4-nitrophenol -6-sulphonic acid whereby a similar dyestuff is obtained.

EXAMPLE 180 In place of 7.0 parts of metanilic acid used in Example 178 there are used 8 parts of 0.88 ammonia at 3040/pl-l 8.59.0 whereby a similar dyestuff is obtained.

SECTION D This section describes the manufacture of monoazo dyestuffs of the invention which contain as the reactive group one or more 1:3:5-triazirie or pyrimidine nuclei substituted by a quaternary ammonium group or one or more SO l-I,

groups, as previously defined herein, by reacting the corresponding dyestuff containing one or more chlorine or bromine atoms attached to the 1:3:5-triazine or pyrimidine nuclei with a tertiary amine, e.g. trimethylamine and pyridine, an alkali metal sulphitel an alkali metal salt of a dithiocarbamate e.g. sodium dimethyl-, diethyl-, diphenylor pentamethylene-dithiocarbamate or an alkali metal salt of a 2-mercaptothiazole e.g. 2- mercaptobenzthiazole, 2-mercapto-6-methoxybenzthiazole or 2-mercapto-6-methoxybenzthiazole or 2- mercapto-6-sulphobenzthiazole.

This process can conveniently be carried out by stirring a mixture of the dyestuff and the co-reactant in aqueous solution at a temperature, an appropriate, from 20 to C. followed by isolation in a conventional manner, eg by spray-drying the reaction mixture in which the dyestuff has been formed, or by precipitation by salting followed by filtration of the precipitated dyestuff.

This process is illustrated by the following Examples in which parts are by weight.

EXAMPLE 1 81 A solution of 7.4 parts of cyanuric chloride in 50 parts of acetone is added with stirring to 100 parts of water at to 4C. A solution of the sodium salt of 7.52 parts of I:3-diaminobenzene-4-sulphonic acid in 120 parts of water is then added, the temperature of the mixture being maintained at 0 to 4C. by external cooling. After the reaction is complete the pH of the mixture is raised to between 6.5 and 7 by the addition of sodium carbonate and a solution of the sodium salt of 6.93 parts of metanilic acid in 100 parts of water is added. The mixture is then stirred for 4 hours at 30 to 40C while the pH of the mixture is maintained between 4.5 and 6 by the addition of sodium carbonate. The resulting solution is cooled to 0C., 20 parts of a 2N aqueous solution of sodium nitrate are added, followed by 12 parts of a concentrated aqueous solution of hudrochloric acid. The mixture is stirred for 30 minutes and the excess nitrous acid is then destroyed by addition of sulphamic acid. The resulting mixture containing the diazo compound is added with stirring to a slightly alkaline solution of 7.3 parts of I-ethyI-3- cyano-4-methyl-6-hydroxypyrid-2-one in 200 parts of water at 0 to 4C., and the pH is adjusted to between 7.5 and 8.0. After coupling is completed, acetic acid is added to lower the pH to 6.0 the temperature is raised to 20C., and the dyestuff precipitated by the addition of sodium chloride. The precipitate is then filtered off and redissolved in 500 parts of water at 20C. with stirring. A solution of 7 parts of trimethylamine in 20 parts of water is then added and the mixture is stirred for 30 minutes. The pH of the mixture is then adjusted to 7.0 by the dropwise addition of hydrochloric acid (36Tw) and the dyestuff is precipitated by addition of sodium chloride. The precipitate is filtered off and dried at 20C.

When applied to cotton and viscose rayon textile materials in conjunction with a treatment with an acid binding agent the dyestuff yields bright greenish-yellow shades having excellent fastness to wet treatments such as washing and to light.

EXAMPLE 182 A solution of 13.4 parts of 1,4-phenylenediamine- 2,5-disulphonic acid in 150 parts of water is condensed with 9.25 parts of cyanuric chloride in 100 parts of 24 water and 30 parts of acetone at 014 5C, then the product is diazotized and coupled with 8.9 parts of lethyl-3-cyano-4-methyl-6-hydroxypyrid-2-one dissolved in 150 parts of water at 5l0C and pH 6.5 in similar manner to Example I.

The solution is then warmed to 2025C., a solution of 10.6 parts of the sodium salt of 2-mercaptobenzthiazole in I08 parts of water is added and the mixture is stirred at 30C. for 4 hours. The dyestuff is then precipitated by addition of sodium chloride, filtered and dried.

When applied to cellulose it gives reddish-yellow shades which are fast to washing and to light.

EXAMPLE 183 In place of the 10.6 parts of 2-mercaptobenzthiazole used in Example 182 there are used 8.6 parts of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate when a dyestuff similar in shade is obtained and which has good fastness to washing and to light.

EXAMPLE 184 In place of the 10.6 parts of 2-mercaptobenzthiazole used in Example 182, there are used 17.2 parts of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate. The resultant dyestuff also gives reddish-yellow shades when applied to cellulose.

Further examples prepared similarly to Example 181 are disclosed in the Table, when the diamine in Column II is condensed with one equivalent of cyanuric chloride, the product of condensation is then condensed with one equivalent of the compound in Column III and this secondary condensation product is diazotized and coupled with the compound in Column IV. The monochlorotriazinyl azo dyestuff thus obtained is then converted to the quaternary ammonium salt by heating with the compound in Column V, and the shadeof the dyestuff when applied to cellulose is given to Column VI.

Alternatively, the product of condensation of cyanuric chloride and the diamine in Column II may be diazotised and coupled to the compound in Column IV, and this dichlorotriazinyl azo dyestuff condensed with the compound in Column III prior to quaternization with the compound in Column V.

SECTION E This section describes the manufacture of a highly important class of monoazo dyestuffs of the invention, namely, where the reactive group takes the form of NH-L -QL as defined earlier in this specification, and more especially by formula (7).

Such dyes can be obtained by a number of methods. In certain cases it is possible to synthesize an aromatic amine containing the above group and diazotize and couple with the hydroxypyridone coupling component. More generally, however,-it is preferred to form a monoazo dyestuff containing a free amino group and react this with a compound of the formula in terms of the above symbols:

halogen. L -QL in which the grouping L.halogen has a substantially higher reactivity than the group L or to form a monoazo dyestuff containing a -L-halogen grouping, and react successively with a diamine and then with a halogeno-heterocyclic compound which is represented by the formula L -halogen.

EXAMPLE 201 9.3 parts of cyanuric chloride are condensed with 13.4 parts of 1,3-phenylene diamine-4,6-disulphonic acid at 13.4 -4C/pl-l 4-5 and the dichloro-s-triazine compound is diazotized and coupled with 9.8 parts of 26 1-ethyl-3 -aminocarbonyl-4-methyl- 6- hydroxypyrid- 2-one in a similar manner to Example 1.

A solution of 9.4 parts of 1,3-phenylene diamine-4- sulphonic acid in parts of water is neutralized with dilute caustic soda solution and added, and the mixture is stirred at 30-40C and kept at pH 5-7 until one chlorine atom of the dichloro-s-triazine group has been replaced.

The solution is cooled to O-4C and stirred vigorously and a solution of 9.3 parts of cyanuric chloride in 30 parts of acetone is added. The resultant mixture is stirred at 04C for 2 hours, keeping the pH at 5-7, then 650 parts of water are added, followed by 15 parts of a 1:2 mixture of disodium hydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate and then 240 parts of sodium chloride. The precipitated dyestuff is filtered off, mixed with 6 parts of the mixture of phosphates and dried.

The product contains 3.0 hydrolyzable chlorine atoms for each azo group and colors cellulose textile materials in bright greenish-yellow shader of excellent fastness to washing and light.

Further examples, similar to.Examples 201 are set out in the following table, being obtained by condensing the diamine of column 11 with one mole of cyanuric chloride, diazotizing and coupling with the pyridone compound of column 111, reacting the resultant azo compound with the diamine of column 1V and finally reacting with the heterocyclic compound of column V.

Then, instead of isolating the dyestuff, 18 parts of ammonia liquor (s.g. 0.88) are added, and the mixture is heated to 30C and stirred at 3040C for 30 minutes. The pH is then adjusted to 6.5 with hydrochloric acid (36Tw) and the dyestuff is precipitated by the addition of 15% w/v sodium chloride. The precipitate is filtered off, washed with a 10% solution of sodium chloride and dried in vacuo at 40C.

adding 2N sodium carbonate solution.

The solution is then cooled to 0-5C and 15 parts of 36Tw hydrochloric acid added. The mixture is then tetrazotized by addition of 3.46 parts of sodium nitrite in parts of water. The tetrazo suspension is then added to a suspension of 9.8 parts of l-ethyl-3- aminocarbonyl-4-methyl-6-hydroxypyrid-2-one in 75 parts of water at O5C and pH 7.0. The mixture is stirred at 0-5C for 4 hours, the pH being maintained at 6-7 by addition of 2N sodium carbonate solution, and is finally stirred at 20C for 16 hours. The dyestuff is precipitated by addition of potassium chloride, collected by filtration and washed with 50 parts of a saturated solution of potassium chloride. After drying in vacuo at 40C, the dyestuff is found to contain 1.7 mols of hydrolyzable chlorine per mol of dye.

When applied to cellulose the dyestuff gives bright yellow shades of good fastness to washing and light.

EXAMPLE 322 sulphonic acid EXAMPLE 346 In place of the 10.6 parts of 2-mercaptobenzthiazole used in Example 182 there is added 10.05 parts of 4,4- diaminodiphenylurea-2,2'-disulphonic acid dissolved in parts of water at pH 6.5. The solution is then stirred at 35-40C for 5 hours maintaining the pH at 6-7 with 2N sodium carbonate solution as required.

To the solution there are then added 5 parts of pyridine and 7.5 parts of sodium sulphite and the mixture is stirred at 60C until sulphiting is complete, as judged by estimation of liberated sodium chloride. The dyestuff is precipitated by addition of potassium chloride and dried. When applied to cellulose it gives reddish yellow shades which have good fastness to washing and to light.

EXAMPLE 347 In place of the 10.05 parts of 4,4'-diaminodiphenylurea-2,2'-disulphonic acid used in Example 346 there are used 10.1 parts of 4,4'-diaminodiphenoxyethane-2,2-disulphonic acid when a dyestuff similar in shade with good fastness to washing and to light is obtained.
